Walmart prompted controversy on Monday after a third-party product description on its website contained a racial slur.

The mega-retail chain published a description for a wig cap that listed its color as “N—– Brown.” The post sparked a reaction on Twitter.

“Umm, @Walmart we need to have a chat,” the comedian Travon Free wrote.

Walmart apologized for the use of the racial slur on Monday, calling it “appalling.” The retailer did not share the name of the vendor that was selling the wig cap.
